Aww Thanks Marilyn, i ran to wal marts yesterday to get him some more learning DVDs they didn't have to much to chose from, i wanted to get him more leap frog and cho-cho one, i guess i have to order them, i did get him learning pop-up cards they were a big hit with him yesterday, so i work with them... i also put a call into the speech lady Amy, to see if i can get him up to twice a week, here goes the tons of paper work again , i told her i would pay for the extra class if needed, so i am waiting for her to call back.

One thing that I remember doing with my daughter, Amy, is to have them look at you when you say a word. Have Micah watch your mouth so he can imitate your actions on pronouncing words. Especially stress the ending of the words if that's what he's having trouble with. Have him repeat the word several times. Your speech counselor should have a list of words for you to work with.

she did tell me to do that Diana, have him look at me and stress the begining and endings of all words that i use with him.
but she don't have a list yet, she was writing down all the words that he was trying to say...

Thanks Judy, we took him to the zoo Friday and he was trying to make animal sounds, he roar like a tiger, pounded his chest like the monkeys, it was cute, then Sunday we took him to Kennywood, he had fun, i'll post pictures soon... he has speech class again tonight. So i'll work with him again when she leaves, he had a break this weekend cause all we did was run around
